Art lovers mark your calendars. MoMA has just announced a show entitled Bauhaus 1919–1933: Workshops for Modernity marking the 90th anniversary of the influential Bauhaus school that will be chock full of masterpiece works that you won't want to miss.

The Bauhaus school in Germany - the most famous and influential school of avant-garde art in the twentieth century - brought together artists, architects, and designers in an extraordinary conversation about the nature of art in the modern age. Aiming to rethink the very form of contemporary life, the students and faculty of the Bauhaus made the school the venue for a dazzling array of experiments in the visual arts that had a transformative effect on the 1920s and 1930s and profoundly shaped our contemporary visual world.

The exhibition brings together over 400 works that reflect the extraordinarily broad range of the school's productions, including industrial design, furniture, architecture, graphics, photography, textiles, ceramics, theater and costume design, painting, and sculpture.

It includes works by famous faculty members and well-known students including Anni Albers, Josef Albers, Herbert Bayer, Marianne Brandt, Marcel Breuer, Lyonel Feininger, Walter Gropius, Vasily Kandinsky, Paul Klee, Lucia Moholy, Lilly Reich, and Oskar Schlemmer, as well as less well-known, but equally innovative, artists.
